Brandon McManus K | GB
Packers' Brandon McManus: Makes every kick Sunday
McManus hit all four field-goal tries and both extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos.
McManus connected on field goals from 53, 26, 35 and 37 yards, respectively. Though he missed six field goals earlier in the season, the kicker has now made eight in a row since returning to the lineup following a Week 11 quadriceps injury.

Jameson Williams WR | DET
Lions' Jameson Williams: Red-hot play continues
Williams caught seven of nine targets for 134 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.
Williams continued his recent string of WR1 performances by nearly matching the season-best line of 7-144-1 he produced against the Packers in Week 13. The Alabama product is averaging 95.3 yards per game since Detroit's Week 8 bye, and that includes a zero-catch dud against the Giants. Amon-Ra St. Brown (13-164-2) also feasted against the Rams' secondary, proving that this passing attack can generate two fantasy stars simultaneously. Williams needs just 64 receiving yards against the Steelers next Sunday in order to reach the 1,000-yard plateau in consecutive seasons.

Cole Kmet TE | CHI
Bears' Cole Kmet: Held to two receptions again
Kmet recorded two receptions on four targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 31-3 win over the Browns.
Kmet finished fourth on the team in targets, notably one behind Colston Loveland. Kmet did manage a long reception of 17 yards, and both of his targets came deep in Cleveland territory. While there are some positives to take away from Kmet's performance, he remains a peripheral part of Chicago's offense.

John Metchie III WR | CAR
Jets' John Metchie: Makes four catches again
Metchie caught four of five targets for 25 yards and rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.
Metchie has caught at least four passes in each of the past four games. He has carved out a steady role since coming over from Philadelphia via trade, but Metchie's ceiling remains capped by the Jets' inefficient quarterback play heading into a Week 16 trip to New Orleans.

Jason Myers K | SEA
Seahawks' Jason Myers: Monster production in win
Myers went 6-for-6 on field-goal tries in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
Myers provided all of the offense for Seattle in Week 15, making field goals from 47 and 52 yards in the first half. He later added makes from 46, 32, 30 and 56 yards after the break, the last of which gave the Seahawks the lead with 18 seconds left in regulation. The kicker has now made at least three field goals in six consecutive contests, going 23-for-24 on field-goal attempts, including 5-for-6 from 50-plus yards, over that stretch.

Isaiah Davis RB | NYJ
Jets' Isaiah Davis: First TD of 2025 among nine carries
Davis rushed nine times for 58 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.
Breece Hall (12 carries for 23 yards) played below his usual standards, allowing Davis to take on a larger role. Davis set a season high for carries and made the most of his added opportunities, with a 24-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter marking the backup running back's first score of the season. Hall will remain the Jets' lead back if healthy heading into a Week 16 road game against the Saints.

Adonai Mitchell WR | NYJ
Jets' Adonai Mitchell: Six catches, TD on nine targets
Mitchell caught six of nine targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars. He also rushed once for minus-4 yards.
Mitchell got the Jets on the board with a nine-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter. The twitchy wide receiver has been targeted 40 times in five appearances for the Jets. Mitchell has been inconsistent while dealing with subpar quarterback play, but his mix of athleticism and target share will give the 52nd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft some enticing upside in Week 16 against the Saints, no matter whom the Jets tab as their starting quarterback.

Isaiah Bond WR | CLE
Browns' Isaiah Bond: Two long catches
Bond recorded two receptions on four targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Bears.
Bond was one of the few bright spots in Sunday's blowout loss, as he accounted for nearly half of Shedeur Sanders' yardage with long catches of 47 and 42 yards. It was his second time showing strong rapport with Sanders on deep passes, as he also had a pair of 29-yard catches in Week 12. Bond will likely remain inconsistent due to his role in the Cleveland offense -- this marks the first time that he's topped two targets in the team's last five games -- but he has shown the ability to deliver splash plays.
-
Josh Palmer WR | BUF
Bills' Joshua Palmer: One catch in victory
Palmer caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.
Palmer was held to one catch for the first time since Week 3, though he's yet to exceed two receptions in a contest since Week 1. The wide receiver finished fourth on the team in receiving yards, while his two targets were his fewest since returning from an ankle injury in Week 11. Palmer will look to be more involved in the team's matchup with the Browns on Dec. 21.

Amon-Ra St. Brown WR | DET
Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Posts 13-164-2 line Sunday
St. Brown finished with 13 receptions on 18 targets for 164 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.
St. Brown's pair of scores in the first half helped give the Lions a couple of early leads in Sunday's shootout. While his team wasn't able to hang on to win the contest, the fantasy star did his part while recording season-high marks in receptions, targets and yardage. St. Brown has looked like his usual dominant self in the two games since giving his fantasy managers a scare with an early exit due to an ankle injury on Thanksgiving Day. The 25-year-old's standout performance against the Rams helped him reach 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth consecutive campaign. St. Brown boasts a healthy 94-1,140-11 receiving line heading into next Sunday's tilt against Pittsburgh.
